Questions Date: August 5, 2022 Prompt #5 of @JonicaBradley : Questions I dunno if she's still around but I hope she is. I'm hoping one day everything goes back to normal, I miss the stability of these platforms. QUESTIONS. I sat at the dinner table having no appetite. I glanced at the food and felt my stomach churn in retaliation. Yet I swallowed the food my mom made and excused myself politely after finishing the plate. "Can we have a burger for dinner? At least eat meat once a year?" I once asked that question when I was about five or six and never did I ask anything again. I was left to starve for a whole week because of that one stupid question. My family lives by one rule; we cannot eat meat. No, we are not vegan. I was allowed to eat eggs, dairies, and fish just not meat. I didn't have the slightest clue why and after asking that stupid question I dropped it. I followed my parents blindly and no one was getting harmed. Until... "Come on dude, just one bite!" My friend yanked my arm closing the distance between us. We were at a party I wasn't allowed into. But I was in a phase where rules don't faze me anymore. "No!" I put up a hand pushing him away. "No way dude, I swear my mother would know." My friend rolled his eyes, "And how she'd know? She's not here, common just one bite! You're missing your whole life by not eating meat. I swear!" He motioned for something in his back and two other of our friends hold my hands. Then in a swift move, the kebab in his hand entered my mouth. I would lie if I say it didn't taste any good; to be honest it was mouth-watering. It was the exact taste I was imagining it would, even more! The nutty flavor mixed with the juices of the meat made a fireworks show of flavors inside my mouth. "Oh, fuck it is damn good!" I grabbed the stick from my friend's hand and started devouring the barbeque in less than five seconds. "Give me more," I demanded and my friend willingly handed me another stick. "Ow, how could I miss this heavenly food?" But the more I eat, the more hungry I get. I was losing control of myself. I eyed my friend, somehow he looked different in my eyes. He smelled different. I swallowed hard, balling my fists to the side. Something wrong was happening to me, my breathing was hitching to a full notch. With every passing second, my friend was not looking so human to me. A low growl escaped my lips. I jumped to my friend. "What is happening to you?" he asked in a scared voice. I snapped out of it but something else was trying to get hold of my body. "I should get going," I said running away. There was a pain in my loins. My bones felt detaching from my body and hunger filled my stomach. A hunger that I haven't experienced before. I run in the direction of our house panicking. My hands and my feet were cracking but I was too afraid to look at my body. I pounded heavily on our door, "What is wrong with me?" I asked but instead of words, it was a growl that escaped my lips.
